Publisher Description: Hosea Hudson's story, as remarkable as it is, is one that could be told many times by determined southern blacks who have fought for freedom and justice throughout the historic southland. "Black Worker in the Deep South" brings memories of Martin Luther King's movement. We need to aleays rmember and remind ourselves of the strruggles such as Hosea Hudson's. "Black Worker in the Deep South" is the autobiography of an unsung blacl leader who, as so many others, has been blotted out from history. It tells the odyssey of Hosea Hudson from a poor Klan infested country town in Georgia, before the turn of the 20th centurry, to his triumph as one of the south's greatest black union presidents and civil rights leaders in Birmingham, Alabama. |
